Do you like going to your job everyday be it a nine to five? I have to say that work is not fun most times when we are working. But a wise man once told me that if you find a job that you like and enjoy to do you will never work a...

geekemgirl It would be awesome if I enjoyed my job. I have a 9-5 and my position can be very stressful. I used to like it because I felt I was providing a useful service to my community and doing something important. I know my job well and that gives me confidence which...

How sad is it tonight I find out one of the world's greatest singers, Whitney Houston has now died. She was only 48, so young. I'm guessing it was her life of drugs and stuff. I'm just shocked, though. What do you feel about...

geekemgirl I also think drugs were a factor. While I didnt expect her death, I cant say I'm completely shocked. She allowed drugs to control so much of her life that it isnt too surprising that it may have resulted in her death. She had a powerful/beautiful voice that...

I had the absolute WORST Monday ever! This past Monday, I was cruising along to work when the scariest thing in the world happened--the entire wheel came off my car (I was doing 65 miles per hour)! Fortunately I didn't...

geekemgirl I only accept adds from people that I actually talk to on FB. I only have 66 FB friends and I still plan to delete some of those if I havent talked to them in the last year.

I recently started watching this show called Dance Mom. I was flipping stations and randomly left it on Lifetime to do homework and a marathon of this show came on. Now, I watch it because I can't help myself. Kind of like...

geekemgirl I hope she is acting this way for ratings because if it is typical for her then both she and Kathy have a few screws loose and their priorities mixed up as does the parents. Unfortunately/sadly, I have seen grown women act this way just like a bunch teenagers....

geekemgirl I watch it for the drama too. I remember that episode. If I were that mom, I would've told the teacher that if I didn't go to work then I wouldn't have money to pay her overpriced fees. I bet that would've shut her up. The little girl even said that her mom...

geekemgirl It'd be hard for me to be friends with those parents and not say anything about them letting their kids go to that dance school which wouldn't be my place.

Twitter seems really popular but I don't know why it'd be good for me to join. Are you on twitter? What are the benefits of joining?

geekemgirl Honestly, I dont want to join another socializing program like facebook but if it'll give me an opportunity to make money as others have mentioned then I'll consider it.

geekemgirl I think it'd be fun to tweet reviews. Why do you place the reviews on twitter?

geekemgirl I dont understand what it is about either. I like to try new things or at least hear about them but I figure I can find that out on facebook. Not sure I need to join twitter. We'll see.

It seems that many children today aren't getting proper discipline because some parents want to be friends with their children and don't want to lose that friendship. I don't think there is anything wrong with being friends with...

geekemgirl Thanks for the clarification. Being a parent is one of the hardest and most important jobs. I believe parents (good parents that is) are absolutely deserving of respect. But not all are good. Anyone can have a child but that doesn't mean that they'll be...

geekemgirl Drow1212, I agree with you completely that we can't always wait for happiness. Sometimes we have to take action. But, I think blkqueen did ask some good questions. Sometimes you have to ask those questions of yourself to determine what you really want out of...

geekemgirl You should try a new hobby. Maybe try a new one at least once a month until you find something that gets you excited. You probably need to go out and meet more people. There are things that can make you happy. You just have to find them.

geekemgirl I wonder if being friends with your kids ever works. I don't think so at least not when it is the priority but that's just my opinion. I too think discipline is important and gets more respect on both sides.

geekemgirl I agree. Discipline, respect, manners and all of those things should be first taught at home but this burden is often being placed on teachers and athletes, actors and socialites are seen as role models. Parents should be filling these roles but some are too...

I know many parents who tell their children if they don't behave that they are going to discipline them which may mean sitting in a corner, taking away a toy or a spanking etc. They start counting and give the child until a...

geekemgirl I used to think as you do because I was raised with immediate discipline but I do see the merits in counting. It gives the parent time to calm down and the child a chance to straighten up. It doesn't take long to count from 1-3 or even 1-5 but it is enough...

geekemgirl That is the best way to do it. You stick to your word so she knows there are consequences. Sometimes it is almost like you're being punished too and it is also work which is probably why some people probably don't follow through. But if you are consistent when...

geekemgirl Definitely not Candy Apples lol. Most of the times the kids seem more mature than the adults. There must be another school that is better and more kid appropriate. The dance that Abby had Maddie do last week was too suggestive. I'd never allow my child to do a...
